What this workflow does

This AI workflow has 67 nodes and runs when someone submits an n8n form (“SketchTales”) (plus 2 other triggers). Along the way it connects Google Gemini, Anthropic Chat Model, Cloudinary (community) and Blotato (community). It also calls api.atlascloud.ai, generativelanguage.googleapis.com and dr-firass.app.n8n.cloud over HTTP.

How it runs

Trigger: When someone submits an n8n form (“SketchTales”) (plus 2 other triggers).

Split Scene Chunks (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
Split Video Chunks (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
Convert to File: converts data to a file (to binary)
Extract Character URLs (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
Build Narration Context (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
Analyze an image (Google Gemini): analyze (image)

Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0

We can't fully verify this one: it relies on 2 community packages, and n8n 3.0 turns unverified community packages off by default (N8N_UNVERIFIED_PACKAGES_ENABLED=false).

Check that n8n-nodes-cloudinary is verified or supports 3.0 (used in Upload an asset from file data1, Upload an asset from file data, Upload an asset from file data2).
Check that @blotato/n8n-nodes-blotato is verified or supports 3.0 (used in Youtube, Tiktok).
